We’re continuing to add squads, weapons and vehicles to the new Enlisted campaign! This is a series of three devblogs in which we will introduce you to the new upcoming content of the Battle of Berlin campaign. Everything will become available in the upcoming major update.
19TH LEVEL
Strike aircraft! At this level you will have access to new modifications of the Soviet Il-2 and the German twin-engine Me 410 B-1. Even more powerful and dangerous. Don’t forget to mark enemy soldiers and vehicles on the ground so that these magnificent vehicles can show themselves in all their glory.
GERMANY | SCHLACHTGESCHWADER 3, II./SG3
“Attacker pilots”. There can be 2 attacker pilots in this squad.
Me.410 B-1
A heavy twin-engine fighter-bomber featuring 2x250kg bombs that drop simultaneously and devastating firepower! The aircraft comes equipped with a pair of 20mm MG 151 guns assisted by twin 13-mm MG 131 machine guns and also carries a huge amount of ammunition, allowing for a lot of action over the battlefield before needing to reload. In addition, all weaponry is concentrated in the nose allowing for very precise and powerful bursts.
This modification of the 410 is also very fast and easily has the potential to outrun most enemy aircraft.
USSR | (308TH ASSAULT AVIATION DIVISION) 948TH ASSAULT AVIATION REGIMENT
“Attacker pilots”. There can be 2 attacker pilots in this squad.
Il-2M type 3
The famous “flying tank” is now even stronger. Metal wings have strengthened the overall construction and their new improved shape has increased the vehicle’s speed. Another important modification is the threaded fuel tanks which significantly reduced the likelihood of a fire.
The heavy 37mm NS-37 guns of the previous version have been replaced with lighter 23mm VYa-23 models, which allows for a heavier bomb load presented in the form of 4 powerful suspended 100 kg bombs as well as 4 RBS-132 rockets which can be dropped and launched in pairs.
20TH LEVEL
Firearms at this research level can be used by the “Assaulter” class soldiers. Equip your soldier with new firearms at the “Soldiers” tab by clicking on squad, then a soldier, then a weapon slot.
USSR| PPD-40
The predecessor of the well-known PPSh submachine gun, which was in service with the Soviet army at the beginning of World War II. The high rate of fire and the 71-round magazine of this submachine gun open up the most aggressive combat tactics for the shooter. It may not offer the highest damage potential, but this is very much compensated by the incredible fire rate and very low recoil, even in long bursts.
PPD-40 with bayonet is also available with a squad in Premium set “Battle of Berlin”.
Germany | VG 1-5
This semi-automatic rifle was developed in Germany at the end of the war intended primarily for use by the militia. Although the design was simplified, it was created to use a rather powerful 7.9x33 cartridge with high destructive power and velocity. The compatible 30 round magazine from the StG 44 makes this rifle one of the leaders in the number of shots before reloading. A convenient sight can also be ranked among the advantages. A great example of how even simple weapons can be very dangerous.
21ST LEVEL
At this level, engineers are able to build any available structure, including the pillbox! These engineers also come equipped with new firearms.
GERMANY | 11TH PANZERGRENADIER DIVISION | 11TH PIONEER BATTALION
Engineers. This squad may consist of 6 engineers, or be combined with other specialists.
FG-42
A very technologically advanced and successful rifle featuring full-auto fire, it was in service mainly with paratrooper units. The high-capacity 20 round magazine allows you to use it functionally as an assault rifle. Recoil can be tricky to control in sustained full-auto fire however, but the FG 42 also offers a semi-auto mode, which can be just as powerful in the right situations.
USSR | 269TH INFANTRY DIVISION|1020TH INFANTRY REGIMENT
Engineers. This squad may consist of 6 engineers, or be combined with other specialists.
AVS-36
The first automatic rifle of the Soviet army. It favorably differs from most analogs with a high-capacity 15 round magazine, as well as the ability to switch the firing mode between semi-automatic or full automatic. Although in full-auto mode it is very difficult to manage the heavy recoil, although the ability to hit an enemy with a burst of bullets may save you in difficult situations. Alternatively, when firing in semi-auto mode the AVS-36 is very reliable and accurate, even at long distances.
